Denis Suarez added to the speculation surrounding his future on Thursday night, by impressing on the pitch for Barcelona and then ‘liking’ a number of tweets that suggested he’s on the way out.

After Suarez was left out of the Barcelona squad at the weekend, it was a bit of a surprise to see him brought back into contention for the midweek Copa Del Rey match against Levante on Thursday.

The 25-year-old began the game on the bench, but with his team 2-0 down, manager Ernesto Valverde decided to give Suarez a chance.

The Spaniard didn’t waste the opportunity, making an impressive run down the right-hand side to win a penalty and cut the deficit to one goal. Barcelona should have no trouble overturning that deficit at Camp Nou in the second leg.

After the game, Suarez logged onto Twitter and liked a few posts suggesting he’s on the way out. One said: “When Denis finds a team where he can play regularly…expect to see a lot more of this!”

In another tweet liked by Suarez, a Barcelona fan said: “Thank you [Denis Suarez] for your commitment and your effort, your talent will see the sun. You deserve your chance.”
